AAAHHHH!!!! I'm freaking out!!! :D They opened up a new surgery date, and called to let me know I could have it if I wanted!! Well, OF COURSE I said YES!!! hahahaha!!!

We weren't expecting surgery to be until the end of August, at least, so I haven't been very diligent about my diet. Well, even though my Dr. only requires a 1 day liquid diet, I started myself on it yesterday. Decided it was better to go ahead, and try to lose a little more weight, and work on shrinking my liver. Can I just say it SUCKS??!! hahaha!!

My birthday is Friday....what an AMAZING birthday present!! SO excited to start my new life!!!!! :D

Wow!! Quite a few of us on the 27th!! YAY!!

My Dr. only requires a liquid diet for the day before, but I put myself on one on Tues. I did allow myself to eat dinner with my husband at our favorite restaraunt last night, and I was MISERABLE!! Ugh, it was AWFUL!! The food was amazing, but I am DEFINITELY not going to miss that "I'm so stuffed I can't move, and feel like I'm gonna throw up" feeling!!! Even still crappy today from it!! No more for me!! ;)

smacbeth, I see you're in Sterling Heights!! I'm in Adrian (not that you'd know where that is!! haahha!!), and having my surgery at Barix in Ypsi. Are you having yours up in your area???

I grew up in Adrian and graduated from there. I live near Saline now. I know where the Barix clinic is in Ypsi. I had mine done in Livonia at St. Mary's hospital with Dr. Zeni but I know some people that had their surgery at Barix and they were happy. Good luck to you, neighbor!

Congrats and Happy birthday!!!

I'm scheduled for the 27th too. I am SO nervous. I was fine and excited and so ready before I got the date and then once I had a solid date, I panicked. LOL

Looks like there are quite a few of us, maybe we can stick together and all be surgery date buddies! :)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
